Hi,
I am using the ovirt 3.5 and when i create VM from the template through
Ovirt web portal, it displays Template is "Clone/Independent"but with
the same template When i create through REST API, it shows
"Thin/Dependent"...
I Found one email thread (
https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg21271.html ) from the
community for the same issue but even using their method still it
display the same "Thin/Dependent".
I am using the following xml :-
<vm>
<name>$name</name>
<cluster>
<name>phase1</name>
</cluster>
<cpu>
<topology cores='$core' sockets='$socket'/>
</cpu>
<memory>$memory</memory>
<template>
<name>$templatetype</name>
</template>
<disks>
<clone>true</clone>
</disks>
</vm>
I have attached the screen shots , please check it.
Your XML looks correct. I used it in my 3.5 environment and it works
correctly, creating "Clone/Independent" virtual machines.
What kind of storage are you using? NFS?
Can you try the following script and report the results?
#!/bin/sh -ex
url="https://engine.example.com/ovirt-engine/api";
user="admin@internal"
password="******"
curl \
--verbose \
--insecure \
--request POST \
--user "${user}:${password}" \
--header "Content-Type: application/xml" \
--header "Accept: application/xml" \
--data "
<vm>
<name>myvm</name>
<cluster>
<name>mycluster</name>
</cluster>
<template>
<name>mytemplate</name>
</template>
<disks>
<clone>true</clone>
</disks>
</vm>
" \
"${url}/vms"
